Charlie and Austin Spencer attended the Alberta Bound Tattoo & Arts Festival in Calgary October 19-21. Turned out the event was extremely busy, not enough time to tattoo everyone on the agenda, they kept busy until their eyes crossed and backs gave out. Studio 21 Tattoo loves our Canadian clientele, some of the friendliest folks on earth! Our good friend Collin Schultz, helped run the booth, and rounded up all the equipment we forgot to bring, along with Deano Robinson (Deadly Tattoo in Calgary) who was kind enough to loan us a massage table among other items. Thanks for coming to the rescue! Collin introduced the guys to a number of locals up there that they had not met before and was an excellent tour guide after hours. So much good food and good times. Collin’s wife Betsy, provided the entertainment on Saturday night with some great stories that can’t be told! Once the convention was over, Austin and Charlie rented a car, heading to the Rockies to visit some friends in Jasper, Alberta. Great little town in a national park. Our friend Ray Bartley has a tattoo shop/piercing shop in Jasper called Black Diamond Tattoo. Charlie tattooed Ray’s wife, Jill before heading out on a hike to a spot called “edge of the world” which overlooks the town from a much higher elevation. There are many photo opportunities in the Canadian Rockies. the scenery never ends!

Industry Supporting Industry Tattoo Art Night is held every third Thursday of the month in the hip downtown “Beauty Bar” Las Vegas. Cornerstone Gallery hosts the event with artwork from over 10 local tattoo shops on display along with an open Sailor Jerry bar 9-10 pm, live music and art demos. The I.S.I. Group is a number of individuals who work and support tattoo artists, musicians and liquor companies for a better tomorrow. This is a FREE event.
